We throw billions at them in Non EM care , its time that was stopped

Well there you go then!

"Requires an admissions officer of a hospital to verify a person’s citizenship or legal status before admitting the person for nonemergency care. Specifies methods for verification and requires the admissions officer to contact the local federal immigration office if a person does not meet citizenship or legal status requirements."

And get your tissues ready.

None of this is going to address another glaring problem within that .....the fact that a lot of the employees of those hospitals are illegals or former illegals or people who have friends and relatives who are illegal that they will do whatever it takes to get them admitted to the hospital.

What did they think would eventually happen when they crossed the border undocumented?

We the people would continue to put up with their fraud and criminal activities? Enough is enough, they must leave freely or be forced to leave this Country by any means of legal actions.

I had/have no idea

I just sent the following to all the AZ Senate committee members:
Dear Senator:

I urge you to VOTE YES on SB 1405.

This bill is NOT a dangerous measure that threatens to put Arizona at risk of a public health crisis or lawsuits. Only those here ILLEGALLY feel threatened by this legislation as they may no longer receive free health care paid for by the taxpayers of Arizona.

This bill will NOT result in wrongful denial of services: most Arizonans, tourists, and people here on business CARRY SOME FORM OF IDENTIFICATION when they go to receive needed medical attention.

This bill is in the state’s best interest. It in no way denies people seeking the treatment they need. Those here illegally know the risk they are taking and therefore should accept the consequences.

I ask you to please stand up for our state and for public health by voting YES on SB1405.

Sincerely,

I suggest other AZ supporters do likewise. Below are the committee members and their emails:

They need to do something as we cannot afford to keep paying for them. Jackson the public hospital in Miami is broke. Part of the problem is mismanagement but a bigger part of the problem is illegals. They closed down their kidney dialysis to non insured or non paying patients last year. They claimed in an article that was in the Miami Herald that 1/3 of their non insured kidney dialysis patients were illegals. Taxpayers having to pay for that is insane.

Now is the time for Florida to initiate a bill similar to Arizona's SB 1405: the text of the bill can be found here: http://www.azleg.gov/legtext/50leg/1r/bills/sb1405p.pdf

Write your Legislators and demand they do the same....Spread the word....
